The bbc article is worthless. It tells you that he was stabbed at 12:05 p.m., but not on what day. It tells you nothing about the murder suspect, except his age (25). It also tells you little about the M.P., not even his religious faith. He was anti-abortion, love animals, and had five children, but apparently gave birth to them himself. He was very “kind,” even though he was a “conservative.”

In England, a constituent meet-and-greet is called a “surgery.” I don’t know if that’s meant ironically.
(I checked the news, and it was today. Since it is now 6:35 p.m. in London, the murder would have been committed six-and-a-half hours ago.)

THAT'S NO LADY...SHE'S A MURDERER
(ZH)Update (1004ET): Despite receiving medical treatment on scene, Amess was unable to be revived and has died of his wounds, according to the Mirror.
According to Sky News, a man walked into the church around 12pm and stabbed Amess multiple times, after which the suspect was arrested on suspicion of murder, according a spokesperson for the Essex Police.
"We were called to Eastwood Road North shortly after 12.05pm. Sadly, a man later died," they said, adding "A man was arrested at the scene. We are not looking for anyone else."
One witness to the scene, Anthony Gavin Fitch, said "As I was walking across the road I saw a few people sitting on the wall outside the church and one was on the phone to the police."
"I heard it was a stabbing from a lady who was inside the church at the time. She was upset and said David Amess had been stabbed three times. She said there was an altercation and then the suspect stabbed him. I think he's still in the church, he (Sir David) hasn't been taken out."

Sir David Amess death: Counter-terror police investigate after Conservative MP dies after being stabbed at constituency surgery in Leigh-on-Sea
Nowadays it seems they withhold the ID of the suspect as long as possible.
Reminds me of a German tweet I saw (link): Gerüchte entstehen, wenn Tatsachen verchwiegen werden -- Rumors arise when facts are withheld.
Didn't read it correctly...."I heard it was a stabbing from a lady..."
Never mind.
